2D adventure game
Sneaky Sasquatch is a 2D adventure game by RAC7 Games. Play as a hungry Sasquatch, and scavenge for food at the campground nearby, but be careful not to get caught by the ranger or the campers. Use Sasquatch’s stealth skills to steal food for eating or to sell it for cash.
Sneaky Sasquatch’s massive campground serves as a vibrant, open world where the Sasquatch must use stealth skills to survive. Gameplay operates using a simple circular sight and sound meter around NPCs. Getting caught by the ranger triggers the tense 'Ranger Danger' mode, requiring an escape on foot or in vehicles.
Campy, heart-stopping gameplay
neaky Sasquatch is a lighthearted game about a crafty creature. Otherwise known as Bigfoot, Sasquatch needs all your help in traversing this massive campground. Other than foraging in campsites, you must help him find specific spots in the open world that you can only interact with when you’re holding a specific item. Your memory will be critical to Sasquatch’s success, as you will need to grab the appropriate gear the following day.
Beyond jobs, the open world is full of activities, rewarding curious players who explore. The Sasquatch can buy and upgrade vehicles for racing, purchase furniture for a house, and even manage a small farm, growing various crops. Success often hinges on finding and carrying a specific item to unlock new interactions, making memory and preparedness critical to uncovering all the game’s silly secrets and quests.
A few drawbacks prevent the experience from being perfect. The game initially suffers from a limited reward system in its early stages, making the initial food-gathering loop feel slightly repetitive. Also, the core mechanic of relying on the ranger's lenient circular sight can sometimes feel too simple, reducing the stealth challenge. Lastly, the requirement to remember which item is needed for specific open-world interactions can occasionally become frustrating.
Hold the bear spray for this one
Sneaky Sasquatch delivers a truly charming and memorable adventure that completely justifies its Apple Arcade Game of the Year title. The game’s blend of simple stealth, vast exploration, and surprising life-simulation depth offers countless hours of fun. Despite minor issues with repetition and memory dependence, the constant introduction of new, ridiculous activities, from being a doctor to running a spaghetti business, makes this a highly recommended and delightful 2D experience.
